Andy, a graduate of medicine and surgery. A first-class degree holder is seen in the village, struggling for his survival and trying all his best to make sure he gives his mom a happy life.
The only family business they had was farming, Andy did the farming with all his strength and was very hard working, so that they'll have much money. Most times, he goes to do some bricklaying job as well. Most times,he even weed on people's farm in the village, so he'll at least make something for the day.
Due to his diligence and hard work,Mr. Okonkwo bought a tricycle and gave it to Andy to drive and pay him monthly, till he finishes the money they agreed and he can take the tricycle as his own too.
This was the most happiest thing that had ever happened to Andy. "I'm so glad Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity, I'll use it wisely" said Andy. "You're welcome Andy, use your opportunity wisely, opportunity comes but once" said Mr. Okonkwo to Andy. Andy prepared himself so well to start his new business and make sure he puts his best in it because he's been waiting for such slight opportunities.
The day breaks, Andy wakes up very early, brushes his mouth, takes his bath, ensured he's done with the house chores in the house,yes!! no matter how big he was, he still did house chores for his mom and then, he prayed to God and set out for the day. He had drove all round the village, trying to get passengers, but none kept coming until one lady who tends to be visiting a relative in the village from the city came along and asked Andy of a street near the village square. Andy offered to take her there and they reached their destination and Andy got back home for that day because she gave him Money for the day.
When Andy got back home, he realized that the woman forgot her phone inside the tricycle and he immediately rushed to give it to the woman, where he dropped her but he couldn't find her, he searched everywhere and even went to where he picked her up but he didn't still see her. After the long search, a number called the phone and he picked up the call and behold it was the woman, she directed him to where she was, Andy went there and handed over the phone to her, only to tell Andy that he saved her life because her bank pins and bvn are inside the phone too. The woman thanked him very much and desired to know who he is and why such a handsome young man like him is driving a tricycle in the village. He told the woman everything that has happened to him since he finishes school and the woman offered to give him a job in the city.
That's how Andy became a medical doctor, lived in the city, in his own house, has numerous cars and made his mom happy. As for Mr. Okonkwo, he payed him off and gave the tricycle to another young man but this time, the young man didn't have to pay Andy but he owned the tricycle.
So friends, opportunities in life comes once, grab them when you see one.
